Ariadne discovers all the dark secrets that Cobb is trying to hide and becomes his confidant during the mission. She's almost his shoulder angel, his conscience.
Ariadne kisses Arthur during the second stage of the mission, but it was an attempt to throw off the projections, and while it's apparent that Arthur did it on purpose, whether Ariadne has an interest in him is speculative.

The way Ariadne understands and talks to Cobb about his issues (in a therapist/client relationship) suggests she may have academic background in psychology.
Her totem is a specially modified chess piece.
Character dichotomy: Ariadne is the other side of the coin of Saito in their makeup. Ariadne represents inquisitive youth, often naïve, imaginative, and hopeful. Saito on the other hand represents aging, often exploitative, experienced and submitting to fate. Ariadne participates, literally creates her own world, and actively seeking a way out when trapped, whereas Saito wants to go along for the ride to "protects his assets," submitting to fate, and ends up trapped inside his own desires.
The cultural contrast in this dichotomy -- East vs. West -- is also of interest, one that represents the fundamental differences of stability vs. change
